@jdunwell Thanks for vocalizing this. More people need to understand what’s happening and why.

@inkstirs Because he’s an Iowan. Born here. Educated here. Moved back here when he had the opportunity. My brother lives in California. He doesn’t consider himself a Californian, he’s an Iowan, who like Zack, would love to find an opportunity to return home.

@DevinMBilski @ZachLahn I assume she sees Muhlbauer as Rip, which would make Sand Jamie Dutton?

[Craig Robinson @IowaGOPer]

@ChrisMWilliams No. I don’t like it, I thought the Arlington site was great, but I get it. These teams don’t just compete on the fields, they are in it to be profitable. The state of Illinois offered them noting but huge tax bills.

@ZachLahn @RMConservative Congratulations

[Craig Robinson @IowaGOPer]

@AlanOstergren @turek4iowa I got it too

[Craig Robinson @IowaGOPer]

Turnout for GOP primary higher than I thought it would be. This is going the distance as these rural counties are going to be the difference makers.

@henryolsenEPPC And there is a pipeline issue there. Perfect storm.

@LauraRBelin @bigredmatt1011 Worst case for MMM would be two years ago. Pautch hasn’t done what’s necessary to win it.

@ChadHarberts @IHSAA Who are you paying? No way the course rate is that expensive, but it’s probably the association up charging to get a piece of the action.

[Craig Robinson @IowaGOPer]

@LauraRBelin Howard Dean, well he was there from the scream...

[Craig Robinson @IowaGOPer]

@douglandry Simple solution, pair down the invitation list. Make it exclusive.

The "yes" vote has won Va's redistricting referendum — but the legal fight is just beginning. Four Va Constitutional challenges are now teed up:
THREE challenges to the amendment process itself:
1️⃣ First passage was invalid. The amendment was taken up during a special session convened in 2024 for budget purposes. The General Assembly's own call to the Governor (under Art. IV, §6 and Art. V, §5) and its governing resolution (HJR 6001) limited the session's scope. Expanding it to include a constitutional amendment on redistricting required a two-thirds vote that never occurred. A Tazewell County judge found this action "void, ab initio."
2️⃣ Art. XII, §1 requires that after first passage, a proposed amendment be "referred to the General Assembly at its first regular session held after the next general election of members of the House of Delegates." An election must intervene between first and second passage. Here, first passage occurred during an election cycle — not before an intervening one.
3️⃣ Art. XII, §1 requires the amendment be submitted to voters "not sooner than ninety days after final passage by the General Assembly." The timeline from second passage to the April 21 vote did not satisfy this requirement.
Plus ONE challenge to the proposed maps:
4️⃣ Art. II, §6 requires that "every electoral district shall be composed of contiguous and compact territory." The proposed congressional maps violate this contiguity requirement (rather badly).

Next stop, court. Stay tuned.

@IowaStateDad @IowaGOP Agree. Sand is the Iowa version of Beto O’Rourke. He will get tons of national attention and $$$ all while Democrats have not been competitive outside 11-15 of the states 99 counties.

🚨NEW STATEWIDE AD: I love Wisconsin, but Madison politics is holding us back.

As governor, I will lower property taxes, cut red tape, and stop Wall Street from buying our homes and Big Data from bulldozing our farmland.

Cliché? You Betcha!
